Location and Getting Around

Stonehaven is an established neighborhood in southeast Charlotte. It is bounded by Rama Road to the northwest, Sardis Road to the southwest, McAlpine Creek to the southeast, and a railroad track and Monroe Road to the northeast, according to its Wikipedia entry. It was established in the 1950s and covers ZIP codes 28211 and 28270.

Lansdowne is in the 28270 ZIP code. Its streets include Lansdowne Road, Sardis Road, Sardis Lane and Providence Road, per City-Data’s neighborhood profile. Providence Road and Independence Boulevard are the main routes toward Uptown Charlotte and other job centers, and shopping at SouthPark Mall, Strawberry Hill and The Arboretum is nearby, according to Homes.com’s Lansdowne guide.

Homes.com describes Lansdowne as car-dependent with few transit options. In either area, test your drive to work at the time of day you would actually make it.

The Homes

Stonehaven’s most common style is the ranch house, with brick or wood exteriors. I wrote more about the street feel and housing mix in my earlier Stonehaven guide.

Lansdowne’s mix is mostly midcentury ranches and split-levels, along with some modern transitional designs, per Homes.com.

The price per square foot tells the story. Stonehaven sold at a median of $309 a square foot. Lansdowne sold at $460. That is a big gap for two areas this close together. Lot size, updates and new builds all play into it, so compare house to house, not just neighborhood to neighborhood.

Prices and How Fast Homes Sell

Stonehaven

Stonehaven’s median price was nearly flat. It went from $692,000 to $700,000, up about 1.2%. Sales dipped from 75 to 66.

Homes still moved fast. The median time on market was 8 days, up from 4. Sellers got 99.1% of their original list price, down from 100%. Supply rose from 1.3 to 1.5 months.

In plain English, Stonehaven is still a quick market, but buyers have a little more room to look than a year ago.

Lansdowne

Lansdowne’s median went from $1,147,000 to $1,320,000, up about 15.1%. Price per square foot jumped from $377 to $460.

Homes sold in a median of 3 days, down from 8. Sellers got 100% of original list price. At the same time, supply grew from 1.7 to 2.8 months, the highest of the two.

Remember the sample size. With 27 sales, a handful of new or rebuilt homes at the top can pull the median up. Fast sales and more supply can happen at the same time when the homes that are priced right go quickly and the rest wait.

Things to Know

  • Subdivision tags are not the whole area. These numbers cover homes tagged Stonehaven or Lansdowne in the MLS. The wider Stonehaven area includes other named sections, like Olde Stonehaven and Queens Grant, per Wikipedia. A nearby street may not be in the count.
  • Check the exact address for schools. Schools are assigned by address. Look up the exact address with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools before you buy.
  • Older homes need a close look. Much of the housing in both areas is midcentury. Plan for a full inspection and ask about roof age, HVAC, plumbing and any past additions. Check permits for any work the seller lists.
  • Price per square foot is not value by itself. A rebuilt home and an original ranch on the same street can be far apart. For a seller, that is why a real comparison of recent sales matters more than the neighborhood median.

Which One Fits What You Want

If your budget is around the $700,000 range and you want an established ranch on a mature lot, Stonehaven’s numbers line up with that. Prices were steady, and you had a bit more time to decide than a year ago.

If your budget is over $1 million and you want access to the Providence Road corridor and nearby SouthPark shopping, Lansdowne’s numbers fit that range. Just know prices there moved more, and the sample is small.

If you are a seller in either area, the gap between list price and sale price was tiny in both. Buyers paid close to asking when the price matched the house. If you are also looking at homes closer to the mall, see my SouthPark area page.
